#AntiBullyingMonth
We're celebrating the amazing leaders who inspire our students every day by taking a peek behind the scenes. This week, we asked our principals to name the one item that is ✨always✨ on their desk - their "Desk MVP" - and here's what we learned:
⭐Dr. Yorko at Kiptopeke Elementary stays fueled with "Protein."
⭐Mr. Clark at Northampton High keeps a daily reminder of his perspective, stating," There is always something there that reflects spirituality."
⭐Mrs. McCowan at Occohannock Elementary focuses on wellness: "Water bottle! I just bought a 64-oz bottle to stay hydrated!"
⭐Mr. Wheeler at Northampton Middle keeps the fun rolling with his festive desk companion: "Anything gnomes. It changes with the seasons."
Thank you to all four of our principals for your dedicated leadership! Follow along all month as we share more about their service to our schools.
